For completeness use: compatible =
"fsl,mpc5200b-lpb","fsl,mpc5200-lpb","simple-bus";  Then it will work.

The kernel doesn't currently bind on the 'b' string, but we put it in
the list anyway to completely describe the hardware, just in case it
ever becomes important in the future.

"mydev" should be in the form: "<vendor>,<device>".

If this is on CS3, then reg should be:
               reg = <3 0x0 0x100>;            // 256 Bytes, 32 used

Because the reg property for mydev is wrong (see above).
